Configuration of ComPlusStatusTest

The ComPlusStatusTest automatically discovers all the applications on the Complus server and reports the status of each. The parameters associated with this test are as follows:

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

  • In the HOST text box, the host name of the server for which the test is to be configured has to be specified.

  • If the RESTART option is set to TRUE, then the test will attempt to restart the applications that have stopped. Setting this flag to FALSE will ensure that no such attempts are made by the test.

  • In the EXCLUDEDAPPS text box, provide a comma-separated list of Complus applications that the test need not restart even if found not running.

  • In the REDISCOVER text box, indicate how frequently the test needs to rediscover the Complus applications. For example, specifying the value 2 here indicates that rediscovery will occur every second time this test runs. Accordingly, if the TEST PERIOD chosen is 30 seconds, then rediscovery will take place every 60 (30*2) seconds.

  • If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS check box will appear in this page. Clicking on this check box will allow you to apply the configuration to all/selected components of that type.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of "none" in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
